Kumail Nanjiani and Patton Oswalt have joined the cast of the 'Ghostbusters: Afterlife' sequel.
The newest Ghosbusters movie, the currently untitled Ghostbusters: Afterlife sequel, is on the way, and Sony Pictures has announced a handful of new cast members. Per Deadline, the upcoming sequel has cast Patton Oswalt, Kumail Nanjiani, Emily Alyn Lynd , and James Acaster in currently unknown roles.
At this time, very little plot details are known about the movie, which will pick up after the events of the 2021 movie. We also know that the iconic firehouse from the original Ghostbuster movies will make its grand reappearance in a significant way. Ghostbusters: Afterlife was set years following the original movie, focusing on Callie and her two kids, Trevor and Phoebe , as they arrive in a new town.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Prior to the sequel, Oswalt has become well-known for his comedy, most recently starring in 80 for Brady, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, and more. He also lent his voice to several TV shows and movies, including Netflix's The Sandman, Disney Channel's The Ghost and Molly McGee, and Unicorn Boy. Nanjiani has been a part of his fair share of major blockbusters as well, notably with Marvel's Eternals.
Who Else Is Involved with the Ghostbusters Sequel? The new movie is directed by Gil Kenan, who takes up the mantle following Jason Reitman. Reitman returns as co-writer with Kenan, and both act as producers alongside Jason Blumenfeld. Much of the original cast is expected to return for the sequel, including Coon, Wolfhard, Grace, and Paul Rudd.
The sequel is currently slated to premiere later this year on December 20. Check out the trailer for Afterlife below:
